#life jacket

The Titanic life jacket is one of only six (out of the original 3,500) that survive today. It was recovered from the wreckage of the liner's sinking by Robert Edwards, the quartermaster of a ship chartered by the White Star Line to search for bodies.

Just a few pieces of my gear collection! I need to get more organized as this is less than half of my items.

Mar 17 2024 - St VacPacktricks day, VacPackedin my green silky outfit green supersoft lifevest and rubber chestwaders

You can see some small wrinkles for air

Despite my pants being silky my hands are very tightly immobilized

My arms are tightly compressed within the chestwaders

Smashed within a warm airless paradise I hit the finale

This started out as a very relaxing session, then in a matter of five runs it became super exciting, I honestly wasn't expecting the finale to hit when it did xD I loved the feel of the thick PVC lifevest around my head, the rubber chest waders always feel lovely and they can create a lovely air pocket or make for a crushing tight grip! I look forward to doing more wearing my lifevests and the chestwaders. Think I need to do something with the blue coveralls and chestwaders soon. I also have to get my total enclosure suit on in the vacbag. This will be my final session until Wednesday or next Sunday as I'm having a bit of wonkiness with my right ear that's gonna need a few days to sort out.

lifejackets

I have not seen any posts here about this yet. I do feel like this might just be a "me" thing, but one thing I often do is put on my lifejacket very snuggly and then do things at home. Things that don't necessitate flotation, like cleaning the dishes, working from home and even taking naps. Obviously, I don't do it for the sake of not drowning, but I do it to satisfy some intense sensory needs. I find that wearing a snug, tight and bulky life jacket provides compression and overall just feels like a hug that could save my life. It is much cheaper than a weighted vest, and it has the added bonus that it makes me feel very safe. Obviously, I still prefer wearing it in the water. I am a good swimmer, swam competitively for 6 years, but whenever I get the chance, I still choose to swim with a life jacket on. I have had one seizure too, and sometimes when I'm overestimated it is very hard to swim, so the life jacket adds a layer of protection that lowers my anxiety. Unfortunately , I still feel very embarrassed about wearing a life jacket in public... even if I'm at the pool, im always the only adult wearing one. I often end up taking it off...I do not know exactly why I love life jackets so much. I think it is related to my autism, but I am not sure. It has been this way since i was a child. Id sneak in to the boat house just to put on my little life jacket in secret. Has anyone else had similar experiences or something? Just looking to see if I am alone I'm this
